Let's address the elephant in this visibility glow-up room: imposter syndrome.

In this episode, I'm breaking down what an imposter actually is (spoiler: unless you're actively scamming people out of their life savings or the Tinder Swindler, you're fine) and why feeling intimidated just means you're expanding. I'll walk you through the real mindset shifts and practical moves that'll help you own your expertise... no more $5K+ certifications required.

I'm pulling from my own messy AF business moments, podcasting fumbles, and what I've seen working with clients to show you why most of us feel like frauds when we're literally just... growing.

You'll learn how to build ACTUAL self-trust through prep, being completely honest about what you know (and don't), and really embodying your thing, so you can stop enrolling in 8 courses every quarter to "be ready".

What you're going to hear today:

• Why the literal definition of "imposter" proves you're off the hook (unless you're Anna Delvey reading this...)
• The difference between feeling intimidated and actually being unqualified (no, they're not the same)
• How to swap "I don't know enough" for "I can figure this out or ask someone"
• What embodiment actually looks like in real life, and how to know if you've got it
• Why DOING the thing creates confidence way faster than THINKING / spiraling about it
• How to use "borrowed confidence" when you're too in your head to just ask
• Why putting people on pedestals and over-apologizing wreck good collaboration
• The reframe that helps you trust your clients' ability to make their own decisions

My Biggest Takeaways:

• Everyone is winging it. Yes, even them.
• Certifications don't give you confidence. Reps do.
• You're not an imposter, you're in a season of growth
• Stop assuming your audience is as harsh as your inner critic. They showed up for a reason, even if it's to "be in your energy" (because YES, many people DO just want to be around you)
